The fake left in this country constantly preaches to the rest of us about peace, non-violent conflict resolution, and tolerance of others beliefs and actions. But, as anyone who has ever had the stones to disagree with their oversimplified "reality-based" vision of a world that simply does not exist, that non-violent tolerance does not extend across political lines.
Take Bob Newman for example. Monday he published a column about Cindy Sheehan, mother of a fallen soldier turned pawn of the far left who believes she is somehow entitled to demand meetings with the president any old time she feels like it. In response to her demands, Newman outlined her positions on the war, the president, and Islamic militants.
...Mrs. Sheehan claims George Bush, not terrorists, killed her son. She didn’t protest when the maniacs of 9-11 killed nearly 3,000 people. She doesn’t fault the mass murderers who continue to butcher innocent Iraqi men, women and children and who continue to kill courageous American military personnel. She didn’t fly to London to protest outside of a mosque. She is in no way shocked by the hundreds of mass graves being excavated in Iraq, graves filled with tens of thousands of bodies of Saddam’s victims. She is not troubled at all by the numerous al Qaeda terrorists in Iraq who want to kill every American man, woman and child on earth. And she could not care less that proud Iraqis, facing death, voted for the first time in throngs for the politician of their choice, defiantly holding up ink-stained fingers to show they had faced down the terrorists. To Cindy Sheehan, it would appear, Arabs, especially Muslim Arabs, should have no right to vote or even live for that matter.
The response from the self-righteous, peace-loving left was exactly what we have come to expect.
In the last 24 hours, I have received hundreds upon hundreds of tellingly hateful emails from liberals who disagree with me. It did not surprise me at all that some of those emails from "peaceful," "anti-violence" liberals said in marvelously profane verbiage that they want me and my family dead. One fellow pulled a classic line from "The Exorcist" and applied it to my mother, saying she was performing certain sexual acts in hell...
...These emails again made it crystal clear that liberals say you deserve freedom of speech so long as your opinion is in sync with theirs. However, disagree with them and they call for your murder and the murder of your family.
Hmmm...That sounds suspiciouly like another group of folks out there. You know, the ones wearing Dupont vests and bathing in flower water.
At the core of this situation is, of course, Sheehan. So what is it about her that the fake left finds so appealing? What "speech" is it that they find worth death threats to Newman's family in order to protect?
Mrs. Sheehan now, in her own words, claims we are using nuclear weapons in Iraq.
She says her son fought for the "Fuhrer," which makes her son a Nazi according to her logic. (U.S. Army Specialist Casey Sheehan re-enlisted to go with his unit to Iraq and was awarded the Bronze Star posthumously for his heroic actions to save some of his men.)
She has totally changed her story since her first meeting with Bush and now wants another ahead of all the other moms. What hubris!
She supports terrorist supporter Lynne Stewart.
She supports Communist Party USA, which wants to overthrow our government and install a Marxist regime.
She also supports Code Pink, which was founded by Marxist Castro supporter Medea Benjamin.
She has publicly attacked the warfighting abilities of our military men and women and claims they are butchering Iraqi civilians. She claims this even though her son was one of those men.
She says it was wrong for us to remove a genocidal maniac (one million dead because of him) from power because, according to her, it was a legitimate government that was none of our business. Specifically, she said sacking Saddam was "unlawful and unprincipled..."
...And she has implied she hopes the Bush twins go to Iraq and die there.
Oh...that.
I wonder what is to be accomplished by scheduling another meeting between Sheehan and Mr. Bush? Perhaps he just needs to hear the hate speech of the left just one more time and he will suddenly change his mind about the war in Iraq, our role in it, and the millions of people who are no longer under Hussein's thumb? Doubtful.
More likely the meeting is sought in order to placate a childish need to throw a tantrum and to cement her standing in the moonbat community for her "courage." Than again, judging by Sheehan's own words, which are predictably published daily by Michael Moore, there might even be something more basic in play here.
It looks like I will be on the cover of People Magazine. Time Magazine, Vanity Fair and Oprah's magazine will be interviewing me also.
Oh...now I get it.
Update: Thanks to Armand for apprising me of the following update to this story. Apparently even Sheehan's own family thinks she is involved in a publicity stunt and has written so to the Drudge Report.
The Sheehan Family lost our beloved Casey in the Iraq War and we have been silently, respectfully grieving. We do not agree with the political motivations and publicity tactics of Cindy Sheehan. She now appears to be promoting her own personal agenda and notoriety at the the expense of her son's good name and reputation.
The rest of the Sheehan Family supports the troops, our country, and our President, silently, with prayer and respect.
Sincerely,
Casey Sheehan's grandparents, aunts, uncles and numerous cousins.
I wonder if it will be all right with Cindy Sheehan when her own family starts receiving death threats from her peace-loving followers.
